A base configuration (64GB RAM, 1TB NVMe, 1Gbps bandwidth, USA East data center) starts at $150/month. Configure and order. Contact sales for custom configurations and volume discounts. Refer to Server Pricing Models for more information.
Setup & Management Best Practices
- **OS Choice:** Choose a supported operating system (CentOS, Ubuntu Server, Debian) with long-term support. See Operating System Selection.
- **RAID/Filesystem:** Implement RAID 1 or RAID 10 for data redundancy. Use a robust filesystem like XFS or ext4.
- **Backups:** Implement regular automated backups to offsite storage.
- **Monitoring:** Use monitoring tools (Nagios, Zabbix) to track server performance and availability.
- **Security Hardening:** Implement firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and regularly update security patches.
- **Kernel Updates:** Keep the kernel updated to the latest stable version.
